I'm 26 and have been experiencing chest pain for about a month and a half now. I checked my ECG, and it came back normal, but I'm still worried. Sometimes it feels like a pressing sensation, and other times it feels like something's moving inside my chest, shifting from the middle to the top, or from the left side to the middle. What could this be?

View allMy dad is 54 and started having heart issues about 7 years ago. He's been on medication, but since last year, his ejection fraction dropped first to 38 and now it's at 42. What can we do to help improve his ejection fraction? I'm really worried.
It's important to closely monitor and manage your father's heart condition. To help increase his ejection fraction (EF), the following medications can be considered: - ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril 10mg once daily - Beta-blockers like Carvedilol 6.25mg twice daily - Aldosterone antagonists like Spironolactone 25mg once daily In addition to medication, lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a heart-healthy diet low in sodium and saturated fats, and stress management can also help improve EF. Regular follow-ups with his cardiologist are essential to adjust his treatment plan as needed.

I'm feeling like there's an earthquake happening inside me all day long and I've got this little chest pain that's worrying me. I went to a cardiologist a few days back, and they did an ECG and an echo, both of which turned out normal. They prescribed some anxiety meds for the night, but they haven't helped at all and I'm still feeling the same. I'm really anxious about whether this could cause any serious heart issues in the long run. Do you have any advice or solutions that could help me out?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations along with chest pain. Since your ECG and echo were normal, it is less likely to be related to a serious heart problem. However, persistent symptoms should be further evaluated. I recommend trying a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to help with the palpitations and chest pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation may also help alleviate your symptoms. If the symptoms persist, it would be best to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
